Good thing that’s not a busy street!

You’re right, Thursday’s background of the London street is terrific! You stated that this was a pen and ink with a watercolor wash style. Just curious how you did it. Did you actually draw it the old fashioned way, create it digitally, or a little bit of both? Either way, it looks wonderful and I look forward to see what you come up with next. 🙂

Thanks Howard,
It is all done digitally. I work 100% in Adobe Illustrator. I have been trying to figure out how to get a watercolor style of background. Obviously I can do it outside the software and import the scan of the physical painting. I have done that before on a small scale IE trees and some props, but I have wanted an easier less time consuming method. I’ll try to write an article for my Bristol Board blog when time permits.

It’s the mark of (whatever the horse’s name is…)

Kicking backgrounds, JP! I can see you put a lot of work in them!
